Hey Baby its cold outside

Its January here in North Central Saskatchewan and the winter has seemed to drag on. Tempatures have been below -25 since December 7th. There were a few days just barely warmer then that but the wind blew and it just made it colder. So what to do when its cold out??? Well, we bundle up and head out into the great white wilderness

Icefishing is one of our favorite pasttimes. We went Sunday morning. The wind was howling and the fish were not biting. I thought this picture was nice tho. Note the open vastness of lake.

So fishless and fed up we decided to pack it in and head back home where we decided to call a few neighbours and spend the afternoon at Little Red River Park, just North East of Prince Albert. The wind was still blowing but the hill offered us shelter.

The kids and adults alike spent a delightful afternoon up and down the hill. We finished off the day with a fire pit, hot cocoa and stick roasted hotdogs.
